The group, which counts almost every U.S. pharmaceutical company as a member, helps qualifying patients without prescription drug coverage get the medical and mental health medicines they need for free or nearly free. You can visit their website or call 1-888-477-2669 and learn whether you're eligible for a patient assistance program.
